Taste of the Nation:No Kid Hungry

Helping to end children’s hunger is of great importance to Just a Bite™. This past weekend we participated in a fantastic event called Taste of the Nation: No Kid Hungry. It is one of 55 events taking place this summer, throughout the United States, in an effort to end childhood hunger. This star-filled affair took place at Media Park in Culver City on June 6th.

Brilliant LA chefs, mixologists and dessert divas, like our own Mindy Himmel, donate their time and talent to this cause. From Chilean Sea Bass to Thai Shrimp Skewers to Chocolate Cake Pops, every food you could imagine was in attendance. Funds are raised to support local recipients like St. Joseph’s Canter, Los Angeles Coalition to End Hunger and Homelessness , Los Angeles Regional Food Bank and California Food Policy Advocates.

Our Cake Pops were displayed in the exclusive VIP tent and we were thrilled at the response. Just A Bite™ loves to work with parties and weddings, but we definitely have a soft spot for a charity. Remember us when you are putting together an auction basket or are having a charity event of your own.

My organization is also holding a tasting benefit called Plate by Plate on August 14, 2010, and we're looking for items to add to our gift bags, which will be given to participating chefs and VIPs. I am wondering if Just a Bite Cake Pops would like to be one of our donors?

Here is the link with the list of participating well-known chefs who will be receiving the gift bags http://www.platebyplate.org/sc/plate-by-plate-participants

If possible, I would like to contact you further by phone or email to provide more information.
